Role of Cyber Security and Digital Forensic in Managerial Practices
Abstract: This paper examines how cybersecurity and digital forensics are integrated into managerial practices to protect organizational assets, preserve business continuity, and support decision-making after incidents. Combining recent empirical and review literature, the paper outlines adoption of cyber governance and forensics readiness by managers, frameworks and tools that support proactive and reactive measures, challenges (technical, legal, organizational), and concrete managerial policies and practice recommendations. The analysis shows that effective cybersecurity governance increases corporate value and reputation, while a forensic-ready posture shortens incident response, improves legal outcomes, and informs strategic risk decisions. An overview of forensic computing is provided, along with a discussion of important factors to take into account when conducting forensic investigations and analyzing digital evidence. The article also discusses important aspects of the administrative implications of forensic computing and identifies recommended practices for the digital forensics investigation process.
